This tree got a new pot (the other one was cracked) and I think it suits the tree, the finish of the pot emphasises the cracking bark of this elm. I also used 100% acadama this year so I will be watching this with interest to see if there is an improvement in the tree this time next year.

Now I’ve had a good look at the photo it looks like there is no separation between the pads of what will be the foliage masses, but that isn’t the case so I will need to do some work to provide some visual separation.
